room parties

[hammercock.livejournal.com]

turtleduck and I were hoping to host one on Friday. We threw our hats in the ring really late, though, and we've never hosted a room party at a con before. If we do manage to get an official party on the list, what exactly does that entail? Do we get some kind of support from the con? Do we have to host in one of our reserved rooms, or could we sort of borrow a room from someone who's having a Saturday night party, or does the con provide a space? I have a lot of questions, so please forgive my ignorance, as I am not wise in the ways of hosting con parties. :-} Any and all insights appreciated!

I've successfully collected extra iced tea mix and extra tropical punch kool-aid (all pre-sweetened). You're covered on non-carbonated picnick-y beverages! I don't have a container for the post-mixed drinks, but sunspiral and roozle have those laaaarge thermos-like things with the spout that they use for their BBQ's and are really great. You might want to ask them if you need containers.
